peacock feathers on linen, laid on board in artist's Plexiglas frame

Carol Bove's work presents peacock feathers arranged on linen and mounted on board, encased within a custom Plexiglas frame crafted by the artist herself. The piece highlights Bove's characteristic interest in found and natural objects, inviting contemplation of beauty, ornamentation, and the passage of time. The transparent enclosure both preserves and displays the feathers' iridescent splendor while maintaining a sense of careful, almost archival reverence.
